5x16 Firewood Shed Plans
Build your own 5x16 lean-to firewood shed with this easy-to-follow digital woodworking plan. Designed to store up to 3 cords of firewood, this shed features a wide open front for quick loading, with slatted side and back walls to allow airflow and help your firewood dry out properly. It’s a compact but efficient structure—perfect for backyard use, homesteads, or anyone who wants to keep their wood dry and organized all year.
This plan includes step-by-step instructions, a complete cut and material list, and 3D diagrams that walk you through every part of the build—from framing the floor to installing the metal roof. The structure uses 2x4 purlins spaced 24 inches on center to support metal roofing panels, giving it both strength and weather resistance.
Whether you’re an experienced builder or weekend DIYer, this plan makes it easy to create a functional and good-looking firewood shed.
